Aura: A Musical in the Dark – a spellbinding triumph of imagination

September 15, 2023 by Ramona Depares Leave a Comment

If you’ve never attended a Panto in the Dark before this, settle in for a surprising ride with Teatru Malta's Aura. The series was started by Marta Vella and Vikesh Godhwani in 2018. The premise may be a simple one, but it remains highly innovative on the local landscape. The production does exactly what it says on the tin, with everything taking place in complete darkness. … [Read more...] about Aura: A Musical in the Dark – a spellbinding triumph of imagination

Waiting for Dik is-Siġra f'Nofs ta' Triq (That Tree in the Middle of the Street, a Teatru Malta/Teatru Anon co-production for the Malta International Arts Festival) to start, I realise there is something magical about the location - the MCAST campus in Paola.

The play was put up at the Splendid, as part of Valletta … [Read more...] about Yasmina Reza’s Arti: a fresh take

L-Arrest ta’ Danny Weed

March 5, 2023 by Ramona Depares Leave a Comment

l-arrest-ta-danny-weed

I approached L-Arrest ta' Danny Weed, playwright Alfred Buttigieg's latest work, with some trepidation. I'm a fan of Buttigieg's work, thoroughly enjoying his previous work L-Interrogazzjoni. What I'm not a fan of is the classic Maltese farce. I just don't get the humour and, while everyone around me is in fits, I'm usually the one looking like a sour lemon. But I had a job … [Read more...] about L-Arrest ta’ Danny Weed

Masquerade’s Misery: Compelling

February 19, 2023 by Ramona Depares Leave a Comment

Masquerade Misery

Alan Paris and Isabel Warrington in Misery. Photo: Justin Mamo "I am your number one fan." It's wonderful how this seemingly innocuous phrase is imbued with menace in William Goldman's stage adaptation of Misery. Based on the Stephen King eponymous classic, Misery is being staged by Masquerade at Blue Box at M Space, and sees Alan Paris taking on the role of the … [Read more...] about Masquerade’s Misery: Compelling
